My Personal Top 5 Films to See In July at Vancity Theatre

My commitment to one genre of film wavers as much as a child in a fill-your-own-bag in a candy store; luckily July satisfies each of my tastes with a perfectly curated movie Smörgåsbord. Here are the 5 films I’ll be sticking around after work to watch.

Opera Week: La Boheme (July 11/14) – This is the last opportunity audiences will have to see this famous John Copley staging of La Boheme, as a new production is set for 2017, so join me at Copley’s classic while you still can. http://bit.ly/LaBoheme-Opera

Suite Francaise (July 17-28) – Since studying WWII in grade school, I’ve been obsessed with reading/watching/learning as much as possible about arguably the most tragic episode in human history. Suite Francaise satisfies this obsession with a dose of forbidden love thrown in for good measure. http://bit.ly/SuiteFrancaise_

Highway of Tears (July 26) – I missed this film in March so I’m happy to see it return to the theatre, this BC based doc is a short yet powerful 80-minutes which raises awareness about the stretch of Highway 16 between Prince Rupert & Prince George, where many girls and women have disappeared or been murdered over the last 40 years. http://bit.ly/HighwayOT
